Oh, and apologies if this is obvious, but the other reason a separate udeb build pass may be necessary is if certain configure options make the code actually not work in the context of d-i. This is the case for openssh (for example, it builds an sshd that can be used as part of d-i's network-console feature, but PAM wouldn't work in that context). I don't know whether it's the case for e2fsprogs. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org]
